What would Gray need to do to be elite?

 

[Tallman]

Surprised Bituli rated so low since he quarterbacks the defense.

 

[willinhf]

What would Gray need to do to be elite?

First question I asked as well when I saw the list.

 

[VollerNbham]

I am glad they never graded any of my papers. Bituli at below average?

 

[HawkVol2213]

Wanya has struggled a lot this year

 

[GAVol]

Wanya has struggled a lot this year

Yep...as a freshman forced onto the field at OT is almost always going to do. It’s been baptism by fire.

 

[photovol]

Something seems off with this rating

 

[Dudleys87]

Wanya has struggled a lot this year

Freshman at an elite position in the SEC. I’d say he did well considering. He keeps working and he’ll be a R1 grade

 

[AllThingsTN]

Such a joke.

 

[TAF]

I’m assuming these are actual, inside the Program, coach designated grades? Which are being used within the system to track and measure performance and improvement/deficiencies? I do so based on the source...

 

[RazzBury]

Wanya has struggled a lot this year

He's also had games where he's done very well. It's not that he doesn't have the skill, he's inconsistent. Which is expected for a true freshman LT.

 

[MadWorld]

Freshman at an elite position in the SEC. I’d say he did well considering. He keeps working and he’ll be a R1 grade

Yes, I think he and Wright did very well for freshman. Hopefully though they improve a lot next season. The extra practices should really help them.

 

[DiderotsGhost]

So no one rated very high, not even the running back with 246 yards?

Seems pretty questionable; particularly the defense grades, as we fared very well against their rushing attack.

 

[BlackCreekVol]

Bituli below average? Smith average? GTFOH

 

[golfballs]

PFF hates us!

 

[ProudVOLfan]

Yep, I stand by my assessment early in the year about PFF.. A JOKE

 

[firedog28]

Who actually made up these ratings? Very hard to rate 22 players in one game! What you talkin bout Willis?

 

[Volumnus 2011]

So no one rated very high, not even the running back with 246 yards?

Seems pretty questionable; particularly the defense grades, as we fared very well against their rushing attack.

Gray made one cut and outran everyone. I mean, it was nice, but he didn't have to do much as big as those holes were.

 

[orangebloodgmc]

Gray made one cut and outran everyone. I mean, it was nice, but he didn't have to do much as big as those holes were.

He spun and plunged and churned for a few more yards numerous times.

Yeah, and that type of ratings system flies in the face of fan hype and emotion from watching plays on TV.

 

[stevenrich2003]

I never graduated kindergarten if this is the case....

Just curious but can you show what Georgia's grade was vs Vanderbilt as those 2 games were similar.

He's going to be a Fr AllAmerican this year I believe. If he stays healthy he'll be All-Sec before he leaves which typically equals a 1st or 2nd round grade! I think he's gonna be a great player down the road.

 

[PulaskiVolFan]

For what it's worth here's the SEC offensive players of the week based off ratings. We didn't have anyone on the defensive team but Bituli has been on it several times the last few weeks. I don't think anybody made their All-SEC team this season.
